What the Drug Ads Don’t Tell You About Erectile Dysfunction
Looking for a breakthrough in the bedroom? You’re not alone if you’re taking a drug to treat erectile dysfunction (ED).
Americans filled more than 18 million prescriptions for ED last year alone. Consumer Reports points out in its online video AD WATCH that commercials for ED drugs have become a mainstay of the nightly TV roundup, and none more so than Cialis, Eli Lilly’s answer to Pfizer’s blockbuster ED remedy Viagra. Lilly spent more than $150 million advertising Cialis directly to consumers in 2007, making it the 7th most advertised drug in the country last year.
Counterfeit pills for erectile dysfunction caught in Galilee raid
Fake Viagra and Cialis pills distributed in the Galilee Triangle were intercepted and confiscated on Sunday morning in a joint raid by the Health Ministry’s unit against pharmaceutical crimes, representatives of Pfizer and Eli Lilly – companies that manufacture the real thing – and the Israel Police.
Ten pharmacies in the Arab towns were visited by the authorities and the counterfeit erectile dysfunction pills were taken for examination and found to be phony.
TriMix’s Gel Found Effective Against Erectile Dysfunction
TriMix Laboratories has presented new research data which showed that among men who previously failed to achieve erections on Viagra, Levitra and Cialis type tablets, 40% achieved an erection sufficient for penetration during sexual intercourse after given a single dose of a novel treatment called TriMix gel.
The research involved 42 men diagnosed with erectile dysfunction and various other conditions such as high blood pressure, high cholesterol, diabetes and removal of the prostate. The average age was 55. All trial participants had previously failed on Viagra, Levitra or Cialis type tablets.
Erectile Dysfunction: Causes and Treatment
The repeated inability of the male partner to attain or sustain an erection firm enough to carry-on and complete a sexual intercourse is termed as Erectile Dysfunction. The problem known to increase with age, affects as high as 50 percent men between the ages of 40 and 70.
Medically, Erectile dysfunction, is defined as the combination of;
• total inability to achieve erection,
• an inconsistent ability to do so,
• or a tendency to sustain only brief erections.
The Reasons For Erectile Dysfunction
The problems with erections are so common that most of us will likely suffer from it sooner or later. A survey performed in 1999 showed that over 2% of male population sought help because of erectile dysfunction problems. And this survey concerns only those who actually decided to look for help!
